“Automation is the best path to achieving everything AI seeks.”

UiPath announces new Autopilot capabilities, integrating generative AI and automation to enable natural language-based task automation for all users.

UIpath, a global enterprise automation software company, held a press conference at the KCC IT Tower in Yongsan-gu on the 31st and introduced Autopilot™, the latest generation AI and automation integrated into its business automation platform.

UiPath Autopilot is a new feature of the business automation platform that supports easy adoption of automation based on generative AI. It accelerates businesses' digital transformation by enabling them to transform paper documents into automation-based apps with a single click.

“With UiPath’s Autopilot feature, customers can automate and operate the innovative capabilities of AI to suit their business processes, seamlessly integrate intelligence into their daily work, and automate all knowledge work,” explained Seungheon Baek, Managing Director of UiPath Korea.

In particular, Autopilot's greatest strength is that it benefits a wide range of users, including developers, end users, and business analysts. Both professional and citizen developers can use natural language to create workflows and build automation-based apps based on PDFs or images.

For end users, Autopilot for UiPath Assistant is an AI companion. It communicates with the chatbot about work processes, automatically performing tasks like email processing, translation, document content extraction, and summarization.

Executive Director Baek said, "With UiPath's Connect Field feature, users can easily access and stay connected to commercial LLM engines like OpenAI and Google." UiPath Autopilot's chatbot function is based on ChatGPT 3.5, and Naver's Clova function performs voice recognition and text conversion.

Additionally, UiPath announced the UiPath AI Trust Layer, a framework for data governance, user experience for generative AI capabilities, and management of large-scale language models (LLMs). The UiPath AI Trust Layer empowers customers to leverage new AI capabilities while maintaining data security.

To help customers effectively utilize its AI engine, UiPath also emphasizes AI-based automation training. UiPath announced the opening of the "KCC-UIPath Immersion Lab" in partnership with KCC Information & Communication at the KCC IT Tower in Yongsan-gu, Seoul, offering hands-on experience and programs in AI-based automation, including RPA, for new developers. You can see examples of end-to-end automation built using UiPath solutions, including document understanding, test suites, and chatbots, in a cloud-based lab system framework.

At the meeting, Park Mi-jeong, head of the Smart Work Team at the National Agricultural Cooperative Federation (NACF), shared a case study on implementing the UiPath solution. "Managing a regional NACF with 1,111 different corporations presented challenges. However, by establishing an RPA portal, we were able to automate tasks by enabling employees to easily access the resources they need," she explained. "Last year, we increased the number of robots fivefold compared to the previous year, demonstrating the benefits of work innovation. Furthermore, we achieved operational efficiency by standardizing and managing all processes, from development to operations, within an integrated infrastructure."

Meanwhile, UiPath, a leading robotic process automation (RPA) solution provider, has successfully implemented and automated solutions at major companies. Global company Uber automated 810,000 overnight cheeseburger deliveries, achieving 70% automation and saving $22 million. Furthermore, semiconductor company Applied Materials went beyond saving time and implemented UiPath to automate repetitive, daily tasks, delivering greater value.
